Jaguar X-Type
 

Souped up Mondeo. Seriously uncool.

this was my dads (second) jag in 30 years... and the first one he's owned that works. its compfy, the steering feels great fo a luxury car (his is a 3.0 VDP) it has great grip in the michigan winters, the engine's torque is very liniar right up to red-line... the GPS unit is great. the car is supple during long distances, and even handles predictably.

this car's throttle even learns how you drive, and changes the shift-points based on that... albiet, when i drive after my dad has driven, it does feel slightly akward for a few minutes.

definately a cool jag :)

It's a hopped up Ford Mondeo, a rebadged boring car. Not to mention the fact that cars of that stature should have RWD. An AWD Jaguar, WTF? It pretends to be something it is not. A shame for the Jaguar-badge...

Cool other than the fact it is based on the Mundeo, thus, not cool. :wink:

is this the same car as je XJ? cos i think thats really cool looking...but this looks slightly different to the car i have in mind...

Mondeo of course isn't a bad base, they are nice enough, but still seriously uncool. This gets seriosuly uncool too for being everything a Jag shouldn't be really :bah:

XJ is full size Jaguar, this one is the cheaper smaller version.

Yuck...

ow in that case: XJ is cool, this1 just not as cool...so uncool
btw LotusGT1, i think your custom title needs to be "Ich brauchE Benzin"...i need petrol/gasoline/benzine (ok i didnt have to put up that translation cos u already knew but well...hrmmm...im talking outta my ass here :) )

Dank je :)

It's short (spreektaal), you are correct if you look at it from grammatical point of view....

It should be Ich brauch' benzin I guess...

Cool, it's a Jag, it looks great and you have to be a real car nut to now it shares it's platform with the current Mondeo.

its JW... we're all car nuts :lol:

and besides... this isnt a case of Monaro -> GTO... the Jag is better in every way to the Mondeo IMO... (mabey not gross weight lol)

Seriously uncool. I absolutely loathe this car.

dito

It's true the X-type shares the same platform as the Mondeo but they're so different it doesn't really matter.

I like the baby Jag look ;)
